| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Apr 5, 2008 I’m going against the grain with this one. A little much carbonation but otherwise hitting on all cylinders. Sharp malty taste. Hops are citrus in nature. Some pine notes as well. ¾ (4999), Colorado, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 26, 2008 Bottle. A bit overcarbonated, it pours out a hazy golden orange with a 2 inch head that grows quickly. Actually has a decent farmhouse scent to it, no doubt unintended, but it truly does smell like a biere de garde, with a mildly funky, estery wheat, mold and fruit smell, along with the requisite c-note citrus hops. Unintended infection, I imagine, but not a disaster. Flavor is more of the same, a bit of pine and citrus hops, some very mild cheese and wheat yeast flavors, a light, airy, dusty and dry texture, and a light sweetness in the finish. jeffwilliams11 (310), hooterville, Michigan, USA

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 19, 2007 Amber pour with an initially enormous head that recedes to a more expected level. Flowery hops with some underlying malt in the aroma. High carbonation. Citrus hop taste. Pretty sour finish. Bitter, sour finish. It’s OK. patrick767 (2051), fort wayne, Indiana, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 16, 2007 bottle - Pours orange with a moderate head and a mild citrus hops aroma. The flavor is moderately hoppy with some caramel malts. It’s at most medium bodied and tending toward the thin side. Crisp, smooth, and easy to drink, it’s alright, but there are far more flavorful and overall better pale ales out there. MI2CA (1266), Noblesville, Indiana, USA
